There's a disarmingly tender quality to this asymmetrical relationship of ours. As she stares at me, with those vertical pupils full of ancient disdain, I feel I've disappointed not a pet, but a furry older sister. "Meu Deus, que desastre!", I think.

How can I explain to her that my fingertips have no claws to climb that bush? I accept my sentence to be the giant, clumsy cat of the family. 😿🐾 #Cat #SpecialRelationship #FelineDisappointment #Nostr #Perspective image

SATS are not coins, but seeds of sovereignty. They are born quietly in the darkness of the blockchain, then sprout into freedom along the Lightning, spreading from wallet to wallet like pollen in the wind. Their strength is the delicacy of an idea that, once planted, can never be uprooted.
Critique of traditional economic methodology applied to a post-AGI future. The article argues that models assuming stability in fundamental concepts (preferences, property rights, discrete agents) become irrelevant or misleading when AGI can radically undermine these premises, necessitating broader, interdisciplinary approaches. https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/fL7g3fuMQLssbHd6Y/post-agi-economics-as-if-nothing-ever-happens #AGI #Economics #ArtificialIntelligence #Models #Critique #Future
